All programming languages are Turing-complete thus compatible. So you shan't need much more than Brainfuck. But if you consider all the benefits the language and the platform it sits on (the BEAM) provides, no, you cannot do Live View as easily and comfortably than you can do on Elixir. Because its model is strongly tied to lightweight processes, message passing, mailboxes and pattern matching. You can implement Live View in assembly or Python or Rust, but it's not going to be very quite as ergonomic and productive. Also, you don't need to know Erlang to be productive in Elixir, but knowing the Erlang ecosystem (i.e. OTP) is going to pay dividends, since it's very powerful and at your fingertips from the Ruby-like comfort of Elixir.
